Avi Kachlon Reveals Depression and 23-Kilo Weight Loss After Divorce

Avi Kachlon, Israeli TV presenter, recently opened up about the severe depression he experienced following his divorce from his wife Rali, a cancer researcher, after 22 years of marriage and four children. Speaking on his show "Almost Shabbat Shalom" on Keshet 12 during a panel on eating disorders, Kachlon revealed that his depression led to a drastic weight loss of 23 kilograms. He said, "As someone who went through it, I don't know if it was an eating disorder, but when I divorced, I was in deep depression, didn't eat, and lost 23 kilos. Today, I am small."

Kachlon's new relationship with TV host and former "Big Brother" contestant Magi Tabibi, who is 19 years his junior, began after a long friendship transitioned into romance. The couple first publicly appeared together shortly after their relationship became known, attending the bat mitzvah of singer Lior Narkis's daughter. Recently, they enjoyed a romantic vacation abroad but have so far refrained from showcasing their relationship on social media.

Kachlon's candid disclosure sheds light on the emotional struggles he faced post-divorce and highlights the challenges of mental health and eating issues. His relationship with Tabibi marks a new chapter following a difficult personal period.
